Ok! We can still get all the goodies, no problem

people want the cake and eat it too. Thank you
for
the explanation. I thought that the Fedora
Foundation
upon release from Red Hat's grip, would allow for inclusion of the programs that could not be added because of licensing issues.
Users who want everything so neatly and conviently packaged should pony up cash to pay for the non-free things they wish to enjoy. And in all fairness, by the graces of the guys at Livna and ATrpms, all these free things can easily be added to a fresh install.
Do I sense some Red Hat dislike in your tone?
Not at all. Red Hat sponsors Fedora which I like and all those things I can get on my own. I personally do not mind going through other packages and getting what I want and configure the system to my liking. It was an honest question which many people ask and they do not get a clear answer.
By the way is this the longest thread of the
year,
or
will it be Peter Whalley,

Enquiring minds want to know.
who cares?
Just a curiosity! No damage or hard feelings intended. :)
I think it is fair to say this is not the longest thread. Earlier this year there was a thread about top posting and other bad list practices, that thread was very long if I remember correctly.
Yes, but this one is not too far behind.
